Congratulations to Lindsey. Comment #74 out of 595 entries! Lindsey just became a mama for the 2nd time, so I think she'll put this fabulous printer to work soon! Thanks for your wonderful entries.

---CONTEST CLOSED---

I couldn't hide my giddiness from the delivery man who showed up at my door with one of these:

It's HP's latest and greatest: The Wireless HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One that I'm reviewing for the fine people over at BlogHer. Never have I owned such a lovely piece of machinery! I could hardly wait to open the box and start to play! Neither could the boys...

Opening and setting up became a family event.

Set-up went off without a hitch and without a wire. It's a toss up on what I love most about this printer - it's wireless feature or it's amazing photo printing quality.

On one hand, the wireless capability is life-changing. I don't know about you, but if printing means transporting my labtop to the printer, hooking up the cords from the printer to the labtop, waiting on it to print, and then disconnecting the messy cords, it's hardly worth the energy. Well, that and the fact that my printer was from 1992 and pretty much lacks any sort of functionality other than dust collecting. Now I can hit "Print" from anywhere in our house, and pick it up at my convieniece. If only groceries could magically appear out the tray, we'd be SET!

As for the photo quality, it's unbelievable. It far exceeded my expectations with it's streak-free, crisp, vivid prints. For those of you who follow my blog at 4tunate, you know how much I adore photography. In the past getting my photos from my computer to printed form was a rare event. I think many of us find this as digital's biggest drawback. However, in a matter of minutes I had a stack of pictures printed and ready for display (while still in my pajamas, I might add). Talk about making life easier!

The Wireless HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One Printer, also features a scanner. Bonus! Plus, it has it's own photo tray and letter tray, so you don't even have to get up from your comfy spot to switch out the paper. If you need more proof of its convienient features, need I mention that you can edit and print directly from your camera's memory card? Freedom without strings wires!

HP also has a Creative Studio, where you can make cards, calendars, crafts, scrapbook pages, stationary and even Valentine's Day goodies. I made this calendar for our fridge in 5 minutes tops!

The creative possibilities are endless!

The BEST part of this review is that I get to share this lovely piece of machinery! That's right, HP is generously giving one of these away to a lucky commenter! Here's how you can make your life easier too: (Read carefully 'cuz I want you to WIN!!!)

comments on "Freedom to Live Wirelessly"

Wow! Jen this is awesome! I guess I can only say that being a MOM of quads, anything that makes life simplier and with LESS wires is an amazing thing! Not to mention it would so help with multi-tasking!I'm looking forward to see what else your blog will showcase.Misty

Honestly, at this point anything without a wire gets top priortiy in my house. Maybe that's why I love my kids so much? :) I do so love to print photos, but unfortunately don't have the access to do so... This would be a super neat gift!! Thanks for running this promo Jen!!

OMGosh Jen...can't believe you have the oppurtunity to live wirelessly and give one away free.

A printer without wires would just make my college life simple as I would not have to hook up the laptop to the printer everytime and could go wireless without trouble. Also being able to print GREAT photos with ease is also a plus too. Can't wait to see the results soon!~Elyse~pawsandholly@hotmail.com

We take pictures of the kids almost everyday, but so many stay in the computer because hooking the laptop to the printer is too much time as is driving to the store. Also, the quality of the prints are not precise. I have done some photography for friends and family and this would be a HUGE benefit to business and family. Thanks for the opportunity Jen!

Mom of twin 3.5 yo boys here. Fewer wires = more great quality photos actually printed to send to family and friends!

With an infant and a toddler in the house, living wirelessly is necessary for safety AND connectivity! (Somehow, little hands always seem to know EXACTLY which cord to pull to either send everything crashing down to the ground, or completely turned off!) No wires would save many a hassle!

We have four computers in our house, yes, 4. This would make it sooooo much easier to print something. My husband wouldn't have to send it via email and tell me to print it anymore!!! Yea!!!alboston at juno dot com

Until reading this, I wasn't aware that wireless printers like this one exist. I could definitely use something like this, especially because my dinky little printer that came with my desktop two computers ago is about to die...let alone print pictures! I'm a college student and it's essential that I own a printer, but if my current one dies I won't be able to afford a new one. I also do a ton of digital scrapbooking and would love to be able to print out my creations. Thanks for this opportunity!-Hilaryhilary.keegan@gmail.com

What a giveaway! This is my first time to post on your blog, but I read it regularly. I would love to have this printer. I work on wireless internet at home, so a wireless computer would make my work complete! =) Thanks!jessicajphillips27@gmail.com

oooooo girl! considering that all of my pictures are stuck inside my computer---i would TOTALLY use this printer to print out pictures as soon as i take them! it looks awesome! (should i win, haha, you know where to find me!)love you!suz

Awesome! I have 3 kids, so the fewer wires we have the better!!Staceysemaccabe at yahoo dot com

My friend and I were just talking about wireless printers. I am having to move out of my office/classroom and am trying to make everything fit into the living room. This would be awesome to keep the wires out of the way. Currently I have to move my printer back and forth to use it.My email is shelterednotshattered@yahoo.com

Love the calendar you made....very creative. Can't believe it only took 5 minutes. Having 3 computers, a 2 year old and a 3 year old - wireless printing would be amazing....maybe I would finally print up all the pictures that are stored in the camera and computer but don't have time to sit and watch the printer in the office while the kids are playing.

As a grad student my apartment is overrun with electrical cords for my computer, camera, printer, ipod, tv, dvd player, and cable box. ANY appliance without a wire would be great but that printer looks awesome!

I have so many wonderful photos that I am always having to order prints for off of the internet (including ones from my wedding I still haven't gotten around to ordering...). This would just make my day!! ...and my scrap book, and albums, and empty photo frames, and gifts, and...you get the idea.

I'm a photographer with an office/studio in a 3rd floor loft at home. The family and I spend most of our time downstairs, and to be able to print wirelessly from the laptops OR desktop would be a dream!

The one and only printer in our house is in my husband's office. Let's put it this way -- his office and my office are at complete opposite ends of the house. Mine's upstairs in the room over the garage; his is downstairs at the far end. We like it that way. But whenever I need to print something, I have to run down the hall, down the stairs and across the foyer to retrieve my documents. And then, when I spot a little typo, I have to run across the foyer, up the stairs and down the hall back to my computer. Then when I print out another copy, blah, blah, blah. You get the picture. Winning this printer would save a lot of wear and tear on my feet!!

Wow - I am so in need of a printer that works consistently and what a bonus to have one that prints great quality pictures. I have a gazillion pictures stored on my computer and am in the process of printing and creating alubms. What a dream prize. Thanks.Lindsey in San Diego

Hey this is such a great idea! Wireless printing would be awsome for me because I'm in college and don't have a printer of my own. My digital camera is pretty much surgically attached to my hand, but in order to get prints I have to walk all the way to walgreens (not a short walk). Thank you!

This printer sounds wonderful - having 3 kids myself, I would love to easily print their photos. Right now we have an old printer that doesn't print photos. My husband has it hooked to his computer in our loft which is 2 flights of stairs up from my computer!

I have two little ones and we have to store all of our camera/computer/etc wires in a drawer. It's such a huge ordeal for me to pull them out and upload pictures, so I save them up and do it pretty rarely. PLUS it's another pain to find a way to print them! This would totally save me time, and I'd get to finally update our photo albums (that are about 3 years behind!)

A wireless printer would be so awesome. I have a 19 month old and to be able to print out pictures of her would be awesome. I am also just getting into photography so I wold love to have something that prints good pictures. Plus, being wireless just helps us out tremendously because we don't have a desk for our laptop. I would LOVE to win this! Thanks for giving it away.

I'm due with a new baby next week! Having a wireless printer would give me a better chance of keeping current on the baby's memory book!

From age 4 until now ( 6 1/2 years!), I think I might have a dozen "paper" photos of my family - everything else is in lala land in my computer. Should I have a major malfunction, my kids will never know what they looked like as children. I could certainly USE a decent printer - and easy for my remedial skills please.

I just found out these existed in the not so distant past! It would be great to print from my laptop here in the living room!Can you tell it's my son who graduated with the Computer Science Degree from Taylor and we merely supported him? It was worth it!Val

I'm a graduate student, and I'm constantly connecting and disconnecting printer wires, external hard drive wires, and all the other mess that comes with the work of being a student! I'm also living 900 miles away from family and friends right now and it would be great to be able to print the pictures they send me to put around my office!

My hubby and I have three computers between us and currently have to switch the printer usb cable between the three depending on what needs printing when. WIRELESS would be so wonderful! The third computer, our older PC, often has to be restarted in order to recognize the printer after the cable is switched. UGH!

Wow, that printer would make my life so much easier, I also work on a laptop!

So, you know how much copying, scanning, and fun projects a teacher can use a printer for. I'm constantly thinking how nice it would be to have a copier at home to not have to lug a book to school just to make a copy.

The photos... Oh man, wouldn't that make life easier too. I take pictures of the kiddos for a class project and can get them printed out just like that. No waiting for them to be developed in store.

Oh my!!! This would be awesome. When I am scrapbooking I usually end up downloading photos to an online venue and then running to the store to pick up the photos. Sure hampers the creativity. :) Definately would make sharing photos and printing a breeze. With all of the school projects we have going on it would be so nice to not have to venture out to get my hands on the digital prints.

Having a laptop with wireless internet in the house is awesome but wireless printing too? Amazing! It would make watching JD and being able to get work done so much easier! Thank you for this opportunity!

I have wireless internet in the house so I usally just get on the laptop so I can be in the same room with my boys. If I have to print something I have to go in our room to the computer. Which is at the other end of the house. So needless to say I don't print a lot.Thanks for the opportunity to win this:)*April*runinthered@msn.com

This printer would be awesome! I have a laptop and I'm currently taking online classes. I often need to print during class and in order to do that now I have to go back to my desk and plug in my printer. With wireless I wouldn't have to do that! Yea!

O-kay....this thing blows me away! I can't believe it's for real that you can print pictures from anywhere in your house! My printer is so old and if I had this, I would DEFINITELY be up to date with printing pictures of my little two year old man! That's one task that gets thrown to the side but if I had this....oh, the possibilities!!!Thanks, Jilljillekirby@yahoo.com

I had no idea this even existed, I was struggling to keep a 1 year old from pulling my laptop off of the printer today while hooking it up to print! Awesome, I may have to ask for one for my birthday if I don't win!VeronicaVeronicalshehee@yahoo.com

How would the HP Photosmart give you Freedom Without Wires? Since my daughter has been born, I have strayed away from scrapbooking, a favorite passtime, just because I have so many pictures to print! I think the Photosmart will help me get back to being me and not just Sofie's mom.

This is a Great Giveaway! As a homeschooler we need to print all the time. Wireless printing would allow me and kiddo to print without having to disconnect my computer and hook his computer whenever we are downloading school work. Also we are a lapbooking our nature studies and have tons of pictures to print.

When my husband is deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan (he's due to leave in less then a year....again, he just got back in Oct.), nothing beats the joy he gets from me snail mailing him pics of the kids he can keep in his ACUs. But with 3 young children and only one me, it's so hard sometimes to get back and forth several times a week to pick up the latest pics from the store. The freedom this would give us would be priceless!

What an amazing product! We just bought into the whole wireless network and I love the freedom of blogging wherever I am with my three little ones. The challenge has been when I'm trying to get schoolwork done and I have to email it to myself and then print it out from my desk top - ahhh!

I would love to win!!! This would be great for printing pictures of my two boys. I have to admit that I have not printed any pictures in almost a year. I take pictures almost everyday so you can imagine how far behind I am. I also print coupons on the internet too! So this would be great. Pick me!!!

I could definately use this printer. In my house I have no space for a printer. Right now, my printer is behind a chair and my 19 months old stands on it all the time. I can't put it anywhere else either. I need to print some pictures!!

JUST this morning I was bemoaning the fact that I couldn't just shoot a "print" command from the living room to the printer in the bedroom. I would love the flexibility and ease of a wireless printer! :)

Wow I am just dreaming about all the pictures I could print of the grandkids. one of which turned 2 in Jan. and the triplets will turn two on Wed. I would love to print pictures instead of ordering them for my grandmother who is in a nursing home and will turn 100 in March! She loves to see all her great great grandchildren's pictures since she can't get out.

There's not room in our computer cabinet for our current printer. I'd love to be able to put it where we can all reach it...and be able to change my mind if it was *too easily* reached! :)audreafuller@gmail.com

What an amazing product! I am addicted to organization but there is no way to organize all the wires that computers and printers require. Wireless is the way to go!

Wow! I love your blog and love to take photos! I have been enjoying reading about Henry Brooks Issac and Clark and their parents of corse! Well hope I win and good luck to you allMaggie Bmaggie_blane@yahoo.com

With the credit crunch and all, this would be perfect for my family. My parents live in Uganda (East Africa), internet connections are a luxury so they hardly get a chance to see uploaded photos of me or their grandson unless I go to the store and get pictures printed. Life would be blissful with this machine because then I would print photos, print them and send them to my family with a lot more ease and at a cheaper price.I would really love to have the freedom to live wireless and I know my family would be blown away with the regular updates.Mary - "maryodeke@yahoo.com"

Four of us in the house...four computers...and three cameras, this would be ideal for us! Daily I get to hear, "Mom can I borrow your laptop to print something?"...and they take it and go hook it up to the wire..and print. Sure would be nice to be able to print wirelessly. :D

Being the mom of a nearly 2 year old, I often spend my day in my PJ's working on cleaning the house and playing hard. This printer would enable me to get my great pictures printed out without having to get my shower in the morning and worry about what my son will break while I'm trying to get presentable to go to the store!

Oh My Gosh!!! This printer would save gas money and photo printing everytime I needed or wanted to print out pictures for scrapbooking or the grandparents. With one plus twins all three and under I never seem to have a free second and this would let me be home to print my pictures.

YEAH BABY!! I could print off ALL my photography for all my major scrapp'n!! AND scan with it, too?!!! WOWEEE!!! -Sioby :) sweet gift, hope I win!!! hahaha

Jen I really enjoy following your blog. I have 3 little ones myself, 3 yr.old boy and 16 month old twin girls. As you know life is crazy so anything that makes life simpler I am all for! Thanks :)aubreyaubsbarela@gmail.comwww.thebarelafamily.com

A wireless printer would make my life easier because it would be so convenient for my scrapbooking. I have so many pictures of my kids and take pictures every week. I would love to be able to get them into my scrapbooks more easily!

As a mother of 5 under 8, getting to a store to print my photos is next to impossible. Having a wireless printer that prints quality photos would be a God- send!!ashenfelters@hotmail.com

Jen, my daughter's husband lost his job, she has 3 children under 3 1/2 (GG twins identical 3 1/2 & 21 mos. boy. Her printer died and I would give this to Whitney so she could have a printer, less wires and I could get all the beautiful pics that she takes of my g-children.Sharansharangrubbs@msn.com

Hi Jen -I would love to have this Wireless HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One printer because with twins our space is at a premium! My nice office space is now a playroom, so my computer is now shoved in a corner in our master bedroom. With the Wireless HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One printer I would be able to have a printer without all the wires! I would also be able to print out all those pictures the grandparents can't get enough of!!!Thanks!Leslie jeremyandleslie@gmail.comwww.hagenandmason.blogspot.com

Hello Gen! I was tickeled pick when I saw your give a way just now! You cannot believe how much an HP Photosmart would give me freedom without wires! My husband and I both went back to school this semester...me for my masters...him for his bachelors! We've been struggling to get our work done because of the one printer! Having the wireless printer would allow us to finish assignments faster and actually see each other once in a while!!!

Freedom from wires means no more war with my wires. Less mess for this family is best.

Wires wires wires... No wired would make things so much easier because well there's just a lot less for the kiddo to pull on. Not to mention less for the Man to screw up!!

This printer sounds AWESOME! Mine just died, but every time I needed to use it I had to unplug something to plug it in. Too many wires at my house means very little photo printing. This might actually get me back to scrapbooking!

A wireless printer would be awesome because I'm on a laptop and I already use wireless everything, so a printer would just be icing on the cake. Love you blog! I have a daughter your boys age so its fun to see how boys act at 2 now!

This is just what I have been praying for! My 3 grown children kept me up and going in our constant growing ways of technolgy. Now that their all on their own raising families, I am working hard to "get with" the new age and cherish the idea of "Freedom to Live Wirelessly" Capturing the images of our next generation and being able to do it on my own... priceless! Thanks HP for helping a "young" grandma learn a new trick!

This is an awesome piece of equipment! We recently had to give up our home office for a much needed play room. We now run completely off of a lap top. Wireless means no tripping and no plugging in and unplugging. Thank you so much Jen and HP for this amazing opportunity!

That would be the best to use with my laptop. We were unable to connect my new laptop to my husbands HP all in one, so today I tried to hook up an old scanner we had. The scanner is so old there is not a driver for Windows vista, so this would be awesome. Thank youDebbietoots6168@hotmail.com

I would love this! I am a photographer who never seems to find time to get our own family photos printed - I have thousands (literally) that I would love to print out and get in albums and on our walls. And wireless to boot.....what could be better?

Well, being a college student I have to print off a bagillion papers. I have a laptop so I have to plug my printer into my laptop every time I want to use the thing. I also love to take pictures and I need a printer that can print off all my pictures! This printer would make my life a lot easier!

Def. could use one of these. We have so many things plugged in to our USB and we're sick of plugging and unplugging things to use other things. Talk about a pain! We'd love to have one of these in our house!

My husband has his laptop, I have the desktop. We "try" to share our one printer which means a lot of unplugging and re- plugging some sometimes not printing because no plugging sounds like the best option. Also, I am not graceful. I am clumsy and trip often. You could be saving a life here!We would LOVE this!Jessica A.jesso22@yahoo.com

Wireless printing would allow me to print pictures without worrying about the kids tripping on or pulling on the cord. I also would be able to work on scrapbooking while my kids were awake. Thanks for the opportunity to win something cool!!

I recently bought an HP laptop and couldn't afford a printer. This new HP printer would complement my laptop very nicely. In addition, I have tons of pictures of the family that I'd like to share with them.

Laptop upstairs with no printer. Desktop pc downstairs with printer. Neither hooked up to printer so lots of stupid wires either way that have to be connected, disconnected etc.So wireless I would be tempted to actually print the twin pics I take :)

Technology that makes being a mom of twin boys easier in any way is a sure winner with me! Pictures for grandparents and great grands at the push of a key and wireless is icing on the cake! I might have to buy one!!!

Now this is an awesome giveaway! Having a scanner and a photo printer would be lifechanging for me....I RARELY get pictures printed anymore and I need to do so really badly. It's been over a year-EEK! And you sold this product with a great review:)kcquilao@yahoo.com

Wow how awesome would it be to have one of these!!!! I too fall victim to not getting the pics off my computer. I love to take pictures but seldom have the time to go somewhere to get them printed! Would love to win, and you review was amazing :)

What a great giveaway!! I must say, like many other people I sometimes feel my house is OVERRUN with wires!!! We currently do not own a printer, and have been looking for something similar to this...I think wireless is the way to go when thinking SAFTEY for the kids. We have 2 young sons and a puppy who thinks cables & wires are her new chew toys :) Also, we take LOTS of pictures, so this would be ideal :)Thanks so much!Bethabjwags@yahoo.com

We just bought a new laptop so a wireless printer would definitely be of good use! Plus, I love taking pictures of Mackenzie and family outings. Winning that would be great!Alliethenolands@sbcglobal.net

Wow! I have just recently started to enjoy photography with my new camera. I would LOVE to be able to print out all of my pictures easily without having to deal with wires!Thanks!Cloeballerina312@gmail.com

I would love to have a printer like this. It's always such a pain to try to deal with the "tangle of cords" at the computer desk especially since the laptop is always in another room.This would be such a great tool to help me get organized and caught up on my photo albums.Thanks for the opportunity to win.Julie Parisparishuff@yahoo.com

Let's try this again WITH my email address this time:Helen said... Our current printer seems to have developed a personality disorder. Often we have to restart the computer to get it to recognize the printer (which is EXTREMELY frustrating). This would be AWESOME.heure(at)hertford(dot)k12(dot)nc(dot)us

I don't have quad's but I do have 3 kids and they keep me VERY busy. My printer is broken so a wireless printer would be Da Bomb! I haven't printed a picture in who knows how long, and getting to Wal-Mart to print just doesn't happen!Thanks,TracyTrayner2@gwi.net

What an awesome giveaway! Thank you. Having a wireless printer in the house would allow me to put it up higher than Lil Man can climb so the only thing I would have to protect would be my computer. That in itself is sometimes impossible. Currently I don't even own a printer because I would have to assemble everything, print, then take it all apart and put it away in order to keep it out of Lil Man's reach. He is going through a phase where he believe everything he can get his hands on needs to be fixed!

Seeing that I don't have a printer at all and am unable to print pictures of my son at home winning the pritner would be awsome because I could print a ton of pictures of my little boy! That would simply be amazing!

wireless means my animals won't chew them! and not having a desktop computer, means i won't have to get up and connect the laptop to the printer. and it means i would finally get around to printing some wedding photos :)

Wow, what a great product! This would provide such freedom from the time spent running to the store to print pictures for grandparents and great grandparents. We could do it right at home and get the precious pics out faster.

Having a wireless printer would help me as a husband of a homeschooling mom because she'll be able to have a printer in our schoolroom that will allow her to send stuff to the printer from her laptop without having the printer connected to her laptop.

We just went "wireless" here when the triplets came off their apnea monitors. We might as well continue the theme and go wireless with the printer! Also, we've been using the same printer for 10+ years and it's about to go south so the timing of this would be perfect. :)

A wireless printer could be a mom's best friend! :) With four little boys (5, 2, and 1 year old twins), I find myself constantly battling the cord issue. It seems my little men are drawn to cords of every kind...and I spend my day "redirecting" them to a safer place. This printer sounds like a dream come true! :)

Thanks for the opprotunity to win this cool printer! I am a mom of two boys who takes photos daily! having the printer and it being wireless means i can print more to put on my fridge.. now could your next giveaway be a huge fridge?!?! :) Thanks for your great blog - i love reading it!! Lisa5773@hotmaildotcom

Wow what a great giveaway - awesome awesome awesome. I think the best part for me would be the fact that we have a laptop and no printer at the moment. Not only would the wireless part be a great asset, but the printing in general would be great!!

Jen, I love reading your blog. It really opens my eyes to the world around me. The wireless printer would be amazing. I am in graduate school and the completion of many projects ends in pictures. I am also in the process of planning a wedding and being able to print photos without all the hook-ups would be awesome. Thanks for the opportunity.

Wow, how much time that HP must grant us busy moms. I have 10 month old twins at home, and work full time as well. I LOVE LOVE LOVE taking pictures, but rarely find the time to print them out. DH bought me a Cannon D60 recently of which I have yet to see one of those amazing photos in print.

The thought of being able to print these photos, without leaving my couch at night once the boys are in bed (the ONLY time to myself), or without having to pack them up and go to a store to print out sounds W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L!

This would be agreat addition to our household of already wireless products. I have about 3,000 pictures since my twins were born and have recently been starting to print them out through snapfish and shutterfly, what a hassle this is, I would be so excited to be able to print them from home at my leisure (what is leisure anyways)? Good luck to everyone!

With the kids raised, I have much more "free" time to enjoy hobbies, both old and new. Photography has always been a passion, I love to explore the "new age" digital possibilities and one of these printers would sure come in handy for the recycled "eco-friendly" greeting cards I make! You deserve only the best Jen, congrats!

I love this printer! What a great idea, and somehow I didn't even know such a thing exsisted! I love the idea that it's wireless (no cords for anyone to trip on!), PLUS, since I'm a teacher and mommy, I would get a TON of use out of it! -Ericablogabooboo@gmail.com

This is so cool, Jen! Since my household doesn't even HAVE a printer, getting one that can do anything and everything, right down to feeding your family and folding clothes all from the next room would be awesome! Wireless, too? Amazing! Such an impressive upgrade from those invisible wires I keep tripping over from my current printer -- ha!

Wow, this is great. I only have a laptop and having to plug in to print restricts the freedom of working from anywhere. Having a wireless printer with my laptop would allow me to work and print from anywhere, which I guess contributes to my laziness:)

I would LOVE to have one of these! I have a 14 month old and love to scrapbook. It would be so much more convenient than ordering prints from a drug store and having to pick them up!Thanks for sharing this opportunity!Melodymarshmelo76@hotmail.com

That is a great little machine! I have a PC with a printer hooked up but it hasn't been used in months on end. I end up taking stuff to work in order to print because like you said - hooking up cables to the laptop is just not an easy chore. Especially since my laptap battery died long ago. I didn't even know they made wireless printers. What a great concept!

I would love to have this printer, I have been looking at this printer for so long, we just don't have the money right now with our second baby coming, I would love to be able to put this to use with my work laptop while home on maternity leave.

Wow, looks like a great machine. Wireless - I would love it. I'm not computer incline with all the plug ins and this would be so much easier. Plus, my printer is on the blitz. I would also love to play on the Creative package you talked about. I love stuff like that.

Thank you. Susan (scichoski@hotmail.com)

Hey, what a neat idea! Well, since my other HP printer died, I can't print off the boys pictures anymore and with the wireless, all of my cats won't get tangled up in them when they're playing around the desk.Thanks,Patty Myerspscm25@netzero.com

Did you say WIRELESS!? Just that feature alone excites me! I can take it practically ANYWHERE in my house, especially away from my children. Like maybe when I am in my locked bathroom. Oops, my mind was just getting all warm & happy just picturing that! YAY! I have to say I LOVE that feature! I am also all for it being easy to work. When it comes to computer stuff I am CLUELESS! haha!

Love, Cathy & the quadsfultonmommy@att.net

This printer would be an amazing upgrade for me and my husband. We usually do work/projects on two different floors of our home so this would make things easy no matter where we are! I am delurking for your giveaway and to let you know how much I enjoy reading your blog and keeping up with your family!Jenniferjenniferwalsh4@gmail.com

I'm dying for the day I can experience wireless printing. All of my current printers are "tethered". I bought an expensive wireless print server and a friend and I spent days messing with it, but it never really works, so I still can't print wirelessly!

The HP Photosmart would be a dream. Finally, I could print from anywhere in the house and pick up whatever I've printed at my own convenience!

To win this would be a blessing. To own a digital camera was a great experience but having a wireless printer to bring your pictures to life is priceless. It's true what they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words." Thanks for letting us know about the opportunity to win one.

My, oh, my! How a wireless printer would revolutionize my life! I teach high school students and when I am preparing lessons and doing research at home, I can't always stop to hook up my laptop to my printer. A wireless printer would allow me to continue working without all the needless stopping!

I NEED one! I read this earlier and didn't post a comment. Now I am in our office trying to figure out which plug I can pull out so I can plug in my scanner! I had to log on and try for the giveaway. I am at over 11,000 pictures since the quads have been born, I just printed some last month for the 1st time...I didn't even have pictures to give to family, how horrible is that? I NEED one!

I'm a busy mom, teacher, author and speaker, with too many wires already! 4 out 5 members of this family need to print things from various places, and the 5th member has just discovered coloring pages online and wants me to print those, too! I can hit print from the kitchen and not burn dinner while making everybody happy with their printing needs. I can't be in as many places at once as I need to be... it would be amazing to have a printer be "everywhere at once!" Thanks for doing this review!Lisa-Annealaji@comcast.net

nystraldjo@hotmail.comwow, i would totally be able to print all the pictures of the kids that i always WISH i had printed, but never have the time or free hands to go GET or never remember to ORDER online. my mom is always bugging me for pictures, and this way, she would actually get them ;) plus, we just purchased three frames w/mats for above the couch, and now i'd be able to print pictures for them.

I would love to have less wires. I'm a mom to 4 including multiples and the baby is always pulling and eating the wires. This would really cut down on that! geko55geko@yahoo.com

Awesome! I just recently got my first digital camera (I too adore photography!) & would love to have a way to print the photos at home. Currently I have to download the photos on my son's computer (there's no working printer in his room!) and then have my tech-savvy hubby transfer the pics to his computer to even email them, much less do anything with them. We only have a regular paper printer, so having one that could do both WITHOUT having to transfer things back & forth between the two computers (thanks to the wireless feature!!!) would be absolutely AWESOME!!!

A new printer would be such a blessing! I wouldn't have to go somewhere to get the many pictures I take of my 4 little ones printed - my albums would get updated much faster... then I'd have some "me time", wait, what is that?! :)You're a gem! Thanks for putting this together!Stephstephanieruwet@yahoo.com

We have a desktop computer in our home office and DH and I each have a laptop that we use in the living room. Being wireless gives us the freedom to check our emails, enter bloggy sweeps:) and all of the other stuff we do online without being trapped in the office, far removed from the family. I love being able to watch tv in the evenings and be online doing what I do at the same time. I am so in need of a new computer, I have a ton of pictures I need to get printed from my recent trip home to Germany.Thanks for the great contest.gugel98atgmaildotcom

This is by the best invention I have seen yet! I never print out my pictures because it is such a hassle. It will take me days to just pick out the pictures I want, then transfer them to a drive then head down to the store to turn around and wait for 2 to 3 days. Which then I have to head back down to pick up. Such a waste of time for me! I would love this machine! No wires it the biggest plus!

Our printer is just beginning to have problems... a new printer would be amazing!

Thanks!

I live in a small town about 30 miles outside of Lubbock, TX. That means that I have to drive at least 30 miles to get pictures printed.

I love scrapbooking and without printed pictures that is kind of a hard thing to do. I have a 4 1/2 year old daughter and 9 mo old son so my time to go to the store to print pictures is very limited because it takes so long.

An HP wireless printer would mean freedom for me because I would be able to do this from my home where my kids are able to be entertained.

We are moving our computer out of our bedroom into an office in preparation of our children getting older and using laptops etc...we want the internet central in the house, where we can see everything. Wireless would be wonderful...with six people in the house, I would love to be able to have the printer wherever it fits best, and not be restricted by wires!psvanderheide@sympatico.ca

So as the other moms with multiples or multiple children said, the less wires the better. And whomever said that boys are the ones that are facinated with machines needs c'mon up to Minnesota and meet the Gacek girls, because these 2 are all over anything mechanical. They have successfully taken apart many objects, some still plugged in. These objects include a DVD player, a VCR, and, yes, a printer, hence the need! And all this before they even turned 2. Double trouble indeed!

As we are coming close to my twin boy's 1 year old birthday (gasp!!) I am finding myself more and more frustrated that I have not been keeping up with their baby books/scrapbooks and have only one photo album put together (and that's the one of their 5 weeks in the NICU that I did BEFORE they came home). I would love this printer because I think it would be such a help in my efforts to document this awesome time in our lives!

And apparently I can't read, as I forgot to add my email address!Sarah Gaceksklaff@gmail.com+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++So as the other moms with multiples or multiple children said, the less wires the better.

Wow! What a great contest! A wireless printer would be awesome for me! All my pics and documents are on my laptop, which means it's a super big headache to get anything printed. Cords, cords, and cords!! I'd love to win! Thanks!

I think wireless would be awesome because I do a lot on my labtop...hope I win:)nsmorinville@gvtel.com

This would be great! All my pictures are on a memory card that I have to take to Wal-Mart to be printed. It would be so much better if I could just print them at home.

Wow this thing is neat, neat, neat! I would love the flexibility of the printer being wireless so I don't have to go into my office to print and pickup photos on a sub-par printer! I do tons of scrapbooking and this would really be a wonderful and guilty pleasure! Thanks for offering it to all of us! :)

Wireless...the possibilities seem endless, especially not having to hook and unhook the printer to the different computers. I don't like that part.

wireless printing... best thing since sliced bread! I'm in school working on my PhD and I probably run back and forth to hook the laptop up to the printer 5 times a day. Having a wireless printer (a printer that actually prints, and does not leave streaks of ink all over the paper) would be truly awesome.

How wouldn't this help me? This is awesome. I am the tech-y in my family and that isn't saying much. I take all of the pics at family events, upload them to a site such as Kodak's or Snapfish, then my family usually has me do all of the ordering for them.....then I have to pick them up from Walgreens or CVS "at my covenience." Whatever convenience that is! This would be true convenience....printing them at home so quickly...and I could have so much fun with the creative center. Need I say more?

I didn't know anyone made wireless printers! HP makes great products and this would go so well with our wireless router and laptop! Thank-you! ljblack6lblackburn@indy.rr.com

Wow - wireless??? That is really cool! We take SO many pictures it would be great to have a printer to print them out. What a cool thing!

what an awesome bit of technology- we have laptops that we use on one floor of our house but the desktop and printer is elsewhere due to room space limitations- how wonderful to not have to make a trip upstair to print.

Yes Yes YES! This is exactly what I need. I have been researching scanner/printers for a big family project involving loads and loads of old family photos. Has anyone tried to make copies at WalMart/Walgreens? Ugh. Copyright infringement laws, etc. I just want to make sure that our family has memories to pass down. This would be a big help and I would definetly sing HP's praises from the rooftops if I were picked!

That would be an awesome prize to win. With a husband that is a full time coach and Dad and a little one who loves to entertain this printer would definetly get used in our house! Thanks for the chance to WIN!

I take more pictures than most people I know. It would be absolutely amazing to wirelessly print them out for framing, scrapbooking, etc. What a cool giveaway!

Being a busy part time working mom this would help me take all those pictures on the camera and make them come to life! I now wait every 2-3 weeks and run to Target to sit in front of the photo making machine for an hour while I pray that my 4 month old stays happy while I print, print, print away!

It would be great to not have to take the laptop into the office when I want to print. What a luxury that would be.

wow! this wireless printer would free up a lot of space on my little desk at school. If only I could unload a picture of all the wires i have on my desk haha! <>< Ashton abeaver@harding.edu

I would love this printer in order to be completely "wireless"! Ever since getting my laptop (and being wireless with that) I have had to keep my desk top (which is upstairs) and print everything through that...what a pain! One of the main reasons I got a laptop was to get rid of the desktop and free up the space it takes up. This would also help me unload a lot of pictures that are eating up storage on my computer!

I would love to have this printer to start printing out the last 6 years of photos I have stored on my computer. However, my son would probably talk me into printing out pictures of every pokemon that ever existed!

What a GREAT printer! Ours is on the verge of dying. The ink cartridges are no longer available. It sits on the floor under the desk, where the 14 month old stuffs it with granola bar wrappers & removes the ink cartridges when he sneaks away from Mama.

A wireless printer would be SO handy to keep the baby from causing mischief. We'd have the option of moving the printer to higher ground!

This printer would also be GREAT for printing photos and scrapbook projects.

Jen, I'm so glad you got this printer! Woo Woo!! And thanks for sharing one with your readers! :O) I have two lovely grandchildren (1 who is 2 weeks younger than your 4!) whom I love to photograph! Add that to my love of scrapbooking and I would really, really enjoy this printer! :O)

Thanks for the chance!Carolcroberts13 @ cfl.rr.com(remove the spaces!)
